"Topeka, Kansas, was in a severe economic recession when Sheldon arrived in 1889 to pastor the Central Congregational Church. To make his ministry relevant to the everyday needs of his parishioners and community, he asked his church for permission to devote twelve weeks to what he called 'practical sociological studies,' suspending most of his regular duties except for preaching on Sunday mornings and Thursday evenings. A remarkable adventure ensued, taking him into every part of town to learn how others lived and worked." Read more

The Asbury Project, Day 2

Last updated on: October 21, 2014 at 3:05 pm   By Jennifer Woodruff Tait

The energy from Day 1 of The Asbury Project carried over to Day 2 as we crossed the street from Asbury Seminary to Asbury University.   The first event I got to attend was a panel featuring penetrating questions for Johnson Asare, Dr.  Tetsunao Yamamori of Food for the Hungry, and Pete Ochs of Capital III (you can read more about all the speakers here, too.) How can business have a spiritual impact?  (All sorts of ways.) What kinds of... Read more

The Asbury Project, Day 1

Last updated on: October 21, 2014 at 1:52 pm   By Jennifer Woodruff Tait

Conferences of Christian entrepreneurs are full of energy.  That was the first thing I learned as I sat in a chapel full of flags, music, and eager seminary students as part of the  recent Asbury Project conference in Wilmore, KY.  The conference, a collaborative effort between Asbury Seminary and Asbury University to explore how social entrepreneurship can advance the Kingdom, also intersected with the Seminary’s Kingdom Conference celebrating God’s work around the world–hence the choir loft brimfull of flags:  The... Read more

[VIDEO] How do we make culture without it making us?

Last updated on: September 30, 2014 at 4:22 pm   By Mission:Work

A great talk on this was posted some time ago on the website of Dallas Theological Seminary, where Darrell Bock of DTS sat down to chat with Andy Crouch of Christianity Today to talk about what culture means. Can you ever leave culture behind? How can you transform it without letting it transform you? How can you make good culture? Listen to the podcast on their website or below (and, if you are a visual rather than an aural learner, you... Read more

Last updated on: October 16, 2014 at 7:41 pm   By Mission:Work

"Take, for example, the world of the Bible, wherein most husbands and wives co-labored to scrap together a subsistence living. We don't see Boaz coming home from the fields, propping his feet on the coffee table and asking Ruth to fix him dinner and put the kiddies to bed. In fact, their romance begins in a field, where Ruth works hard gleaning behind harvesters to provide for herself and her mother-in-law." Read more

A 1949 guide to doing what you love

Last updated on: September 30, 2014 at 4:20 pm   By Mission:Work

This channel’s been home recently to some musings on the “Do What You Love” school of vocation advice: Jeff Haanen and J. B. Wood have reminded us that God may sometimes want us in places we don’t love, that failure to be in a place where we can do where we love does not mean we have failed in our faithfulness, and that a choice for stability over dream-chasing is not an unChristian choice. I thought of all that when... Read more
